Riassunto

"In the increasingly crowded field of books on qualitative research, Thomas R. Lindlof has produced a gem, marked by its clarity of writing, depth of analysis, and maturity of thought. Well-founded arguments are advanced in lively experiences and good advice. Readers receive a solid combination of knowledge and practice. This one stands out." --James A. Anderson, Department of Communication, University of Utah At last, a research methods book specifically designed for the communication field! Qualitative Communication Research Methods offers an up-to-date review of the best work being done in this area: naturalistic inquiry, interpretive paradigm, ethnomethodology, symbolic interactionism, ethnography of communication, cultural studies, sampling, and linearity, to name some of the topics covered. No other text provides such a comprehensive treatment of the full range of qualitative communication research. Thomas R. Lindlof also provides numerous examples of published work in the field, illustrating how studies are designed, carried out, written, evaluated, and applied to theory. Qualitative Communication Research Methods is written in a style accessible enough for students, yet comprehensive enough for scholars. An essential volume for students or scholars in the fields of communication and popular culture who want to use qualitative methods in their work.
